Fancy Captcha is a prettier, more-intuitive way of verifying humanity versus a standard captcha mechanism. Instead of computing a mathematical equation or decyphering a random image, Fancy Captcha asks users to drag an apporpriate icon onto a specified area of the screen.
The original intent of this project was to integrate the Ajax Fancy Captcha library with Drupal's Captcha contrib module. Unfortunately due to the way the library was structured, it was not feasible to use the existing code. The code was rewritten in a way that is appropriate for this integration and the originial library was used for inspiration.
Any form of spam prevention can be defeated, Fancy Captcha is no different. I have tried to address potential vulnerabilities and this required making tradeoffs between security and efficiency. If you have any questions or recommendations, please contact me via my private contact form.
